Chinese to send delegation to Canada to study peacekeeping: McCallum: "OTTAWA (CP) -- China, which for years has been leery of some international peacekeeping operations, now wants to send people to Canada to study peacekeeping.
They want to talk to Canadian experts and even observe Canadians in the field, Defence Minister John McCallum said Wednesday in a conference call from Beijing.
This may signal a shift in Chinese policy, said David Rudd of the Canadian Institute for Strategic Studies.
China only began participating in UN missions in the 1990s."
